Our dog is extremely well behaved. She just has this nasty habit of waking up. While awake and we are out the neighbors say she likes to bark. Well they don't say it so much as write it ... anonymously. We have begun to hear the ominous beat of the war drums in the distance; I believe they are marshaling their forces.
This is an extremely unusual position for us, our last dog only barked when Republicans proposed legalizing Gay marriage, or Democrats won the White House and the like. It is a difficult thing to control your dog while you are away. We purchased a citronella collar that squirts her when she barks. It does seem to have slowed her down some; but she always has a lemony fresh smell about her now. Still the neighbors seem to be stowing their pitchforks and torches for the time being; perhaps it will work.
